Driver's licence concessions
WA seniors holding both a Western Australian Senior's Card and Commonwealth Senior's Health Card will be eligible for the same concessions as Aged Pensioners holding a Pensioner Concession Card. A 100% Driver's Licence fee concession will apply (ie. the Driver's Licence is free). All original applications for a driver's licence concession must be made at a Licensing Centre.
If you do not have a Senior's Card and have reached the age of 60, you should ring the Office of Seniors' Interests on (08) 6217 8800 to make further enquiries.
